Chapter 368: Don’t Talk when You Can Do It, Trouble (if There Is a Reading Cake, Grab It Quickly!)
Afraid that Huang Ru would ask too many questions, think too much, and doubt herself, the wet nurse hurriedly said: "To be honest with you two adults, back then... indeed... there was indeed a guest named Ji."
"But the guest only stayed for an hour. If you add it all up, it was really only an hour. There was not a moment more. The guest really came and left. The old slave didn't even see his face, so he listened behind him. The maid said, she just found out, this old slave really doesn’t know anything about this matter, so please ask the two adults to investigate clearly.”
The nanny said, wishing she could bend her knees and kneel down for the two of them.
Liu Wei frowned: "I've only been here for an hour, but I still remember the other person's last name, Ji. Is it still fresh in my mind?"
"That's natural, just because...just because..."
Halfway through her words, the wet nurse hesitated, raised her head quietly, looked left and right, and even looked out the window, as if she was afraid that the partition wall had ears.
Rong Leng took a sip of tea and put the tea cup down. The sound was neither soft nor serious, but the "thump" sound made a drum in the nanny's heart, making the nanny no longer dare to talk about him.
The wet nurse lowered her head and said hurriedly: "Just because the old lady called him a name, the old slave has to remember it fresh."
Rong Leng's dark eyes narrowed slightly: "What is your name?"
"Little..." The nanny gritted her teeth and said, "Miss."
"Crack!" Liu Wei grasped the armrest of the wooden chair with her fingers and broke the armrest with one force.
There was a brief silence in the hall.
Huang Ru looked at everyone without knowing why.
The wet nurse lowered her head and prayed to God and Buddha for her family to be safe.
Liu Wei's eyes flickered, her mind was spinning over and over again, and she couldn't figure it out...
Only Rong Leng, he just took Liu Wei's hand in a normal way, broke her tight fingers, threw away the half of the armrest, and wiped Liu Wei's palm with his sleeve, trying to remove the obvious The red marks from the chrome on the wooden handrails were scattered.
It wasn't until quite a while later that Liu Wei pursed her lips, stared at the wet nurse, and asked, "What happened next?"
"What happened later?" The wet nurse shook her head: "Nothing happened after that! The old slave never saw the guest's face from the beginning to the end, and these words were all told by the slave girl below. The old slave was also curious at the time and wanted to ask the old lady, But the old lady said that she was not feeling well, so she went back to her room to rest. After two days, she forgot about it. Now if the two adults weren't so aggressive, the old slave would definitely not be able to remember it. If you two didn't believe it, it would be okay. Ask the other people in the house, Mother Su and Mother Ma were still there to serve the old lady, but the two mothers had already retired and returned to their son's Zhuangzi for retirement, not in Qinshan Mansion."
If he's not in Qinshan Mansion, what's the use of being pushed out by the nanny right now.
After all, it was just the wet nurse's delay.
The wet nurse really wants to delay it. If she delays it, she will have time to transfer the money!
At that time, if he bites his tongue and never says another word, the lives of the whole family will be saved, and the wife will not be able to find fault with herself, killing two birds with one stone.
Thinking about this foolproof plan, the nanny's lowered eyebrows were full of expectation, waiting for the two adults to cause trouble for others.
But the reality is often unsatisfactory.
Liu Wei saw that this wet nurse was an old man, and he couldn't get anything out of her mouth without resorting to some ruthless means.
Liu Wei was wondering whether it was better to use coercion or inducement, but Rong Leng had already made up his mind for Liu Wei.
"boom."
A long heavy sword was placed on the table next to it.
Liu Wei looked at the long sword that Rong Leng had casually taken off, paused for a moment, then turned to look at the wet nurse.
Sure enough, the nanny's expression changed again.
The nanny's face was full of annoyance and pain. After struggling several times, she finally spoke out again: "My lord, it's useless to bring out the sword. This old slave really doesn't know, but... Later, some garrulous girls talked some gossip, which was quite interesting to listen to. Like..."
"Say." There was calm courage in the low-cold male voice.
The nanny swallowed the blood that came up and said in a pinch: "The girls said that the guest was not only the lady that the old lady had served before, but also brought many treasures with her, and she even brought one of the treasures with her. Leave it to the old lady."
Liu Wei blurted out: "And where are the people?"
You don't need to think about it to know what kind of treasure it is. It is designated as the real treasure map, and all Liu Wei cares about is the whereabouts of his mother.
The wet nurse thought they were going to ask what the treasure was, and was really thinking about what to say. After all, this rumored treasure had never been included in the warehouse.
But hearing that they didn't ask about the baby, but only about the person's whereabouts, the nanny would not say anything more, so she said: "The guest only came for a short time and then left. As for where he went, I really don't know."
Liu Wei pondered for a moment and took a breath: "Did that guest come back later?"
"No, no." The nanny shook her head repeatedly: "Never seen her again."
"Do you remember the guest's appearance?"
Just as the nanny was about to say something, she suddenly remembered something and continued to shake her head: "Aren't you trying to tease this old slave? The old slave has never even seen the guest. How can he know his appearance?"
Liu Wei narrowed her eyes: "The corners of his eyes are wandering, his legs are slightly spread, his body is tilted five percent, and his eyes are moving more than twice as fast as normal. These are signs of lying."
The nanny couldn't understand Liu Wei's words, but she could understand the last sentence!
What does this adult mean when he says this? It seems that he is lying?
However, lying can never be seen like this.
Regardless of the nanny's doubts, Liu Wei just said firmly: "Tell me, what does that guest look like?"
The wet nurse wanted to shake her head and insist that she had never seen this person before, but her eyes were wrong and she saw the man with the sword unsheathing his sword.
Rong Leng held the hilt of the sword in one of his slender hands, and heard a "whoosh" sound piercing the air. Before the wet nurse could recover, she felt the cold wind blowing by her ears and a "ding" sound behind her.
When the nurse's eyes widened and she turned her head, she saw a long sword stuck horizontally on the wooden pillar behind her. The sword was still trembling slightly, making a sharp shouting sound.
The nanny couldn't bear it any longer, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground, her calves going numb.
"Sir, please spare my life, I said, I will say anything..."
How could a dishonest slave with a bad record not be afraid of death?
Liu Wei looked at Rong Leng.
Rong Leng just picked up the tea cup again and took a sip of tea calmly. He didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with using a sword in someone else's house.
Liu Wei took another breath.
Well, no matter how the process is, the result is always gratifying. As expected, the old saying goes, when you can do it, don't talk, it's troublesome.
Liu Wei asked Mrs. Huang if she wanted rice paper and coal strips. After laying out the paper, she looked at the wet nurse and said, "Tell me."
The long sword was still hanging on the wet nurse's head. Although she wanted to hide away, her legs and feet refused to obey her and she couldn't even move.
